hi friends!! I’ve been gone from tumblr for quite a few months (lost my job, depression, travels, etc etc etc) and while I’m not sure I’ll be returning in any sort of full capacity (or even partial capacity), I wanted to share that I will be visiting Aotearoa New Zealand for six weeks starting in February 2025 and I’m planning on visiting as many of the on site locations for filming of OFMD as possible. It would be so rad if yall could share any locations that you know of that I can add to my list 👀

anyway, much love & light to you all. This fandom is so special and precious to me and I’m grateful for all the good times 💖

My gut reaction was "ewww what the heck" and then I realized that yes I am just a little lover over here in the cold uncaring world. I especially love the "happiness in everything" though I'd like to change it to "joy in everything" 🥰 follow your heart, it'll all be okie 🤗

HELLO EVERYONE I AM BACK WITH A VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT AND THAT IS:

My beloved Danny aka @soupbtch is finally sharing their INCREDIBLE fic, Red Skies At Night, and I'm just over the moon for them. I'm a proud dad cheering on their kid at a soccer match. I'm that really affirming server at a restaurant when you're on a first date with someone and they're just hyping you up. I'm your high school English teacher who slipped you all the banned books and encouraged you to write that poetry. I'm--

I'm so proud of Danny!!

Please go check out their work. They've poured so much of theirself into the story and it shows.

They've currently posted 6 chapters - go get 'em while they're hot!!! Such a privilege to help beta and support their writing over the last 6ish months!!

Red Skies At Night

hey! hey you! do you like slow burn? do you like idiots to idiot lovers? then boy (gn) do I have the fic for you!

this is a modern cruise ship au. roughly 60k words. fully written, mostly edited.

huge, massive, heartfelt THANK YOU to @sleepystede and @spirker for the betas 🫶

the first chapter is up on ao3 now 👇

'There's nothing better than working with friends because it just feels comfortable. And with an old friend like Taika, [...] we think the same and we have the same sense of humor. So, already, we're having a good laugh before we're in the thick of it.'

[sleepystede]

Y'all, I absolutely get the sadness, but also, like, things are deeply unpredictable. I honestly didn't think there'd be so much behind the scenes and extended scenes that would just be released into the wilds of the internet. Didn't think there'd be months of campaigning for someone to pick up the show. There's a lot of possibilities of what can happen, especially given the major upheavals within the industry right now.

Max is not in good shape; I honestly wonder if Season 3 would ever have seen the light of day if it did get made with them. All sorts of shit can happen, and it could suddenly turn very good.

There's so much good stuff. Never say never. Try to enjoy that.

[sleepystede]

I love what we have so much. But Samba saying this is the last bts scene drop...it really fucking hurts, because this is the last time we'll get new content of them. And yeah, this day would've come eventually, even if we did get a third season.

But it just drives home how much we're missing out on, how much sooner we're losing this than we should have. We should be excited for a third season right now. It hurts so much that we're not. We should've gotten to see them get married, and have weird conversations, and do little improv bits. The chemistry between these two is amazing, and it hurts so much that telling an amazing queer story like this wasn't valuable enough to some rich fucking CEO to keep. The people who worked on this show deserved so much better. We deserved better.

[sleepystede]

We truly do not talk enough about how Abshir and co are just out there on the high seas doing the Nigerian prince scam on unsuspecting rich people. Good for them.

@glitterarygetsit your tattoo is so lovely 🥹 all the meaning and moments and memories within it are just fantastic. I can see the joy radiating from it!!! ✨️✨️✨️ & I love the origin story at the con!!

✨️ofmd tattoo✨️

I scheduled this tattoo appointment on the day of the cancelation and I've been holding onto hope as it grows and transforms into the vibrancy of community they can't take away from us.

I always loved the lighthouse and Kraken imagery of season 1 and how Ed and Stede had to grapple with the disparate parts of themselves in order to open up to the possibility of love (like waves washing over them).

Anyway, I'm feeling fuckin' great today now that ofmd is written on my skin in permanent ink 💖🏴‍☠️

If you have an ofmd tattoo, reblog with a pic of it, I wanna see. Or if you WANT one, tell me about it in the tags.

Thank you for being my people 💖

[sleepystede]

The judgemental dog face in the corner is EVERYTHING 😂 I love that your Kraken tattoo continues to gain new meaning or at least more coincidence now!!
